ITEM 8.01       OTHER EVENTS
                ------------

         PVF Capital Corp. (the "Company")has elected to defer the payment of
dividends on $10.0 million of variable-rate Subordinated Deferrable Interest
Debentures due June 29, 2034 and $10,000,000 of fixed-rate Subordinated
Deferrable Interest Debentures due July 6, 2036 (the "Debentures"). The Company
issued the Debentures to two special purpose entities, PVF Capital Trust I and
PVF Capital Trust II (the "Trusts"), in exchange for the proceeds of the
offering by the Trusts of trust preferred securities. Pursuant to the terms of
the Debentures, interest on the Debentures may be deferred at any time or from
time to time for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly payments (five
years), provided there is no event of default. While the Company will defer the
payment of interest on the Debentures, it will continue to accrue expense for
interest owed on the Debentures at a compounded rate. Under the terms of the
Debentures, if the Company has elected to defer the payment of interest on the
Debentures, the Company generally may not declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment
with respect to, any of its capital stock. Accordingly, the Company will
discontinue the payment of cash dividends on its common stock.
